My colleague at LeedsMet, Prof Janet Finlay, has started her sabbatical year this September, and after that she will leave LeedsMet to pursue other things in life. I wish her the very best for this move!
As a result, I have now "inherited" leading the project "EuroPLOT", which she has initiated and led since last year. This project is devoted to the development of "persuasive learning objects and technologies" (PLOTs). LeedsMet's role is here to lead the project, to contribute to all the work packages, and to lead the dissemination activities. For this project, I began to expand some of the online activities: we set up a blogger page and a page on Facebook, and opened a Twitter account.
Since August 2011 we had a few internal meetings at LeedsMet, with the next teleconference meeting coming up next week. Every 6 months there is also a face-to-face meeting; the next one in November will take place in Hradec Králové, Czech Republic.
The project is moving towards the end of its first year, with two more years after that. It is funded by the European Commission Lifelong Learning Programme (Project ref: 511633-LLP-1-2010-1-UK-KA3-KA3MP).
